1983.95.99 The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn:
"I laid there in the grass and cool shade, thinking about things and feeling rested and ruther comfortable and satisfied. I could see the sun out at one or two holes, but mostly it was big trees all about, and gloomy in there amongst them." (Twain, p. 49)
"It was kind of lazy and jolly, laying off comfortable all day, smoking and fishing, and no books or study. Two months or more run along, and my clothes got to be all rags and dirt, and i didn't see how I'd ever got to like it so well at the widow's, where you had to wash, and eat on a plate, and comb up, and go to bed and get up regular, and be forever bothering over a book and have Miss Watson pecking at you all the time." (Twain, p. 37)
